Tangent General Episode 12

The world seems to be build for machines, the
question that I have been contemplating recently is: “how do we
remain human?” Depression is something that I suffer from, it is a
part of my bipolar disorder. I want to share my story of my recent
struggle with depression. In the first story today I share that
with you.

In the second story, Drew Sample of the
Sample Hour Podcast, joins me in the first part of a two part
discussion where we discuss Wendell Berry and his role in guiding
us towards taking better care for ourselves and our
home.

Fast food is delicious and a ready comfort
for the overwhelming emotions that are triggered by the
overwhelming stimulus that we have floating all around us in the
either. But to garden, to cook and to clean our kitchens and to
clean our bodies is one of the most important challenges that we
have in our contemporary society. So whilst Jordan Peterson may
instruct us to clean our rooms, I say: Clean our bodies, eat
healthy, get plenty of sunlight and exercise and work on developing
a consistent sleep cycle.

Thanks for all of your support so far, I look
forward to making more amazing episodes for you soon! Up coming
guests include: C Derick Varn, Phil Surdam, Antony Sammeroff, and
Chris Stefanick.
